How to make cornrows last longer
Sleep in a silk or satin durag, scarf or bonnet to stop frizz. Keep your scalp lightly moisturised with a light oil, and avoid heavy products that build up between the rows.
Most cornrows look their best for 1 to 3 weeks. Leaving them in much longer can stress your hairline, so book your next set before they start to lift. Worried about your edges? See our hair growth specialists.
